Heaven Is A Place On Earth With You

The thing is, until you get past the mindset of "justice=punishment" you will never be able to create lasting change. We have actual proof that punitive justice creates more crime and makes criminals more violent. We have actual proof that rehabilitation reduces crime and recidivism. But some of y'all are so stuck on this idea that the wrongdoer must be punished for justice to be done that you will choose sating your need for revenge over actually moving toward a better world every time. And that's sad!

Guys I have some unfortunate news. I’m rly blown away by how fast we reached the 80k goal for Mohammad’s and Shaima’s fundraiser, but unfortunately Wafaa was told by the fundraising organizer that not only does gfm charge a 3.5k platform fee, but it also deducts 2k for international transfer. Please please donate to the fundraiser and help Wafaa’s family reach their new goal of 85.5k. They would not be asking for it if they didn’t truly need every last cent to evacuate to safety.

Never forget: twice as good for half the credit.

this video has been going around for a while but the English subtitles didn't match the energy of the spoken French at all. i had to fix it.
